On Tuesday, Wing, a drone delivery business owned by Google's parent company, said it'll launch in Europe in the spring of 2019, with the introduction of service in the Helsinki area of Finland.

Wing has spent the past 18 months testing drone deliveries in southeastern Australia, according to its website, partnering with local businesses to deliver food, drinks, medicine and household items.

In July, Wing graduated from X, Alphabet's moonshot factory for future-tech projects. It's now an independent company within Alphabet, headed by James Burgess. The startup aims to build a drone delivery system and management platform to improve transportation of goods.

Wing says its drones run on clean electric power, fly emissions free, and allow small businesses to deliver to a lot of customers in a short time. It also says customers can get their goods delivered faster.

"Finns are internationally renowned for being early-adopters of new technologies, and we're looking forward to working with the community and local businesses," the company said in a statement on its site. "Based on what we know about the winter weather in Finland, we're pretty confident that if our drones can deliver here, they can deliver anywhere."

The company is seeking input on its service from people who live in the Helsinki area.

"We would like to introduce a service in Greater Helsinki this spring based on Finns' preferences," a Wing spokesperson said in an email statement. "We're asking them to tell us what they want us to deliver on a new section of our website, at wing.com/finland."
